Anata Ga Ita Mori

Anata Ga Ita Mori (The Forest In Which You Were) - Jyukai

fukai fukai mori no naka honoka kaoru itoshii
hibi no omokage sagashitemireba fui ni anata ga warau
In the deep thick forest, there is a faint fragrance that is very dear
When I try to find the faces of the passing days, you laugh suddenly

furetemitakute te wo nobashitemo hakanaku chuu wo matta no desu
When I reach out my hand to touch it, I feel like I’m dancing in the faraway space

anata ni aitakute zutto aitakute zutto omou
nemurenu yoru wo watari
anata ga nokoshita hikari to kage no naka ni tsutsumarete naiteiru
I’ve always wanted to see you and am thinking of you always
Crossing the sleepless nights
While I cry, I try to embrace what’s left of you in the midst of light and shadow

dame na atashi wo kogashi shizumu yuuhi to
hadashi no mama ai no zangai wo funde nijinda aka
Hopelessly, I walk barefoot in the scorching sunset
While stepping on the ruins of a love that fades crimson

furetemiyou to te wo kazashitara anata no koe ga shita no
When I hold out my hand to touch it, I hear your voice

“aishiteru.” imasara todokanu uta wa kaze ni saraware
haruka kieteitta yo
suna tokei sora takaku tobashitemitemo nani mo ano hi no ne wa hibikazu
Right now the words “I love you” won’t reach as the wind carries away my song
It disappears far far away
If I throw a clock of sand in the high skies, I hear the sounds of that day resounding

nido to wa sawarenai keshikitachi ga
sara sara nagaredashite
Scenery that I can’t touch again
Fades away slowly

“kesenai.” fuesugita kuuki kasanesugita kioku to sono te mo sono kami mo
anata ga nokoshita hikari to kage wa amari ni mo ookisugiru no deshita.
“Don’t disappear,” that hand and that hair, in the rapidly enlarging atmosphere and heavy memories
The light and shadow that you left is just too large

fukai fukai mori no naka de…
In the deep thick forest…
